In the beating heart of Italian glassmaking, where tradition meets innovation, comes the Venetian goto, an expression of Murano craftsmanship that encapsulates centuries of history and culture. The term “Venetian goto” has fascinating origins, being closely related to Venetian daily life and tradition.
Traditionally, the “goto” was the personal glass of the master glassmaker, used to quench his thirst during the long, hot days spent near the furnaces. This glass was not only an object of use but also symbolized the bond between the craftsman and his creation, becoming a true hallmark of pride and belonging to the glassmakers’ guild.
Vetreria Murano Design®, celebrates this unique legacy through creations that blend craftsmanship, contemporary design and vibrant colors. Each goto is more than just a glass: it is a journey through centuries of history, a unique piece that tells stories of fire, air and timeless creativity. Particularly in Venice, the term “goto” goes beyond the simple glass, evoking a sense of community and sharing, recalling those convivial pauses in which toasts were made to the day gone by and moments of life were shared.

Goto de Vin: The Wine Experience through Murano Glass Glasses
Drinking wine is an experience that involves all the senses, and the right glass can enhance every aspect of it. In Venice, this experience transcends the simple act of drinking, becoming a true social and cultural ritual, closely linked to the tradition of “cicchetti,” small appetizers that accompany wine in a convivial moment of sharing. Our Spirale glasses are designed to celebrate this tradition, combining form, function and beauty in every sip.
These glasses, handcrafted by our master artisans, not only enhance the wine tasting experience but are a tribute to the Venetian drinking culture. The Venetian cicchetto, similar to the aperitivo but with much deeper roots in the history of Venice, is a moment of social gathering where wine, served in our elegant “Goto de vin”, becomes the protagonist. Tradition dictates that, while strolling through the “calli” and canals, one stops at the various “bacari” (typical Venetian taverns) to enjoy wine and cicchetti, creating a unique gastronomic and cultural journey.
